In Munroe’s corner, watching every) World’s Fair, ‘Movement of both men, MeCoy stood. As soon as tho bell rang and Mun-) a came back for the Interval of rest, the "Kid" leaned over him, and in Greece, the home of the Olympian snappy eentences gave him his fighting orders for the aext round, McCoy was the general and Munroe was the army.

Munroe is not altogether without sense, and he realizes Just what the pee “Kid” accomplished, Ho gives credit to McCoy, Instead of taking t Ath hrow all himself, Munroe, now that McCoy {s on the field, will work with Gis velo havi the clnaete welt confidence. When the fact that the Grecian can throw the discus so well ie taken into! consideration, and that the world's record for the distance is but 197 feet 4% Inches, it can readily be seen tha: the Grecian is a dangerous competitor for Ross, Rodman or Sheridan to have) to oppore, | The second entry that was received was that of Dimetrtus Tofalos, who ts | entered in the weight-lifting contest, and who has 4 record of 310 pounds for lifting the ber-bell, and 191 pounds for Uftng the dumb-bel with one hand, These are wonderful records, and fit to win a place for anybody at any oom- petition, n The McCoy brain, working Svengall-llke {n the body of Munroe, will see much to offset the bollor-maktr's bulk and cleverness, McCoy takes delight {n marking any man who trains with him. When g Riierce was working for the fight with Sharkey the “Kid” Diackened both of the miner's eyes. Munroe says that a black eye ts his mascot and that he never will lose a fight when he goes into the ring with one or two of them. Like all men who work underground, the miner {s superstitious, He told me a while ago that he believed the first time he fought without taking re ‘& black eye into the ring with him he would be whipped, > DORS LITTLE HARD HITTING. When training under the coaching of "Kid" McCoy Munroe does very little hard hftting himself. He {s satisfied to let the Kid" do all that and to take whatever comes, He boxes cautiously, letting McCoy land, studying (the effect of his punches and trying to figure out how to get In a return, If ~ Munroe has one particular fauh as a fighter it is that he studies too much in the ring. He {sa little too cool and deliberate, Ho is big and strong ‘enough to go in and punch with any one, Terry McGovern never won his Dattles by studying out blows and gnards, He always piled in on top of his _ man and slugged as fast as possible. If Munroe did the same thing with « figoter like Jeffries who is clever as well as big and strong, he would have a @ botter chance of winning. 4 |. to pick out a way for the miner to win if it 1s in Munroe's bone and musole| In the Other Races, According to Comte Alex Mercatt, of Greece, a member of the International Olympic Committee, who has sent to America the entries of his countrymen, Greece will also be represented in the Marathon race, and the entry of a/ Grecian for that event Is now on the) Way to America, This fact adds muoh interest to the Tunning of this event, for it will bring McCoy trained Munros to fight Sharkey with the style best caleulated to | \oRether, representatives of at least ten Beat him.
